So it's no surprise Mitsuki and Takemasa reuse a lot of their old Kurara Zeroshiki and Mizelia stuff in Kiryu, but this is a pretty interesting example I noticed recently. The chorus for "Bakeneko" seems to be a combination of elements from Yumemonogatari and Yue, which are right next to eachother on the same Kurara Zeroshiki album.

Gulu Gulu is having a Niconico live right now!

I just remembered this one time, in Nashville, I went to a Mellow Mushroom Pizza where they had live music, and this country band decided to just start covering Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg songs... but still singing like a country singer with the heaviest redneck accent you've ever heard.
Like... stop. Just rap the parts normally. Or just stay away from covering 90's Hip Hop if you're gonna use that accent. A UGK song, or Three Six Mafia song would be WAY more appropriate for that kind of accent... but not Snoop Dogg.
But really, if you're gonna do everything with such a heavy hick accent, and bro-country sounding compositions... you might just not wanna touch Hip Hop at all

Kaiki trying to revive Soleil in 2020. I support this (mostly). But it ain't a proper Soleil revival without La'Mule

It seems like Hiyori is barely even wanting to be Visual Kei anymore...

It's ok. I've had my share of worse fuck-ups and bruh moments here. This is pretty tame compared to the mistakes I used to make here lol

I found this rare pic of 2002 Yuuga with a happy birthday message on a really old blog lmao. This screams early 2000's internet

Can Kisaki just fuck off? Like, I get that Mirage is his band... but still, can he fuck off? Can't the members just cover Mirage songs without him?

What was with Visual Kei's obsession with pinch harmonics between 1998 and 2004, and what god damn idiot was the one who decided to stop using them? lmao

@saiko My favourite examples would be Schwein no Isu and Zan by Dir en Grey, Kuse by Mist of Rouge, and Schizophrenia by Chateau la Tour

Anyone remember that dick who is staying over at my partner's place that I made a post about? Yeah he decided to make fun of my singing and the fact a lot of my music has harsh vocals and told me I'm horrible.
Like, bitch, that's why I'm fucking practicing, so I can fucking get better. No one is a fucking vocal wizard over night.

Wanting MH members to choose only ONE favourite band is criminalised under the US Constitution as "Cruel and Unusual Punishment"

Wagakki Band never technically had an indies career, unless you count that really early cover of Tsuki Kage Mai Ka with Kanade from CrowXClass playing the Shamisen instead of Beni. As far as I know, they've always been major as the bulk of their releases have been on Avex, which is pretty major

My partner is playing Dying Light and it's supposed to take place in Turkey, but it's such a bad representation of it that I came up with this reaching explanation: It's a highly gentrified part of Turkey that was taken over by Arabs, Russians and Americans so people have Arabic names, speak English with Russian accents, and the buildings and businesses are in English.
Seriously though, what part of Turkey looks like a Brazillian favela?

Whenever singing along to Vkei songs, does anyone else just make up the lyrics as you go along? Because that's generally what I do. I just sing whatever it sounds like they're singing because I'm just doing it for fun lol

oh man when I've recorded something that we've sung when drunk or something and listen to it the next day. you can even spot the moment when someone loses confidence in the lyrics and starts winging it with about 50% of the volume previously

I don't think I've ever known the lyrics to a full Japanese song and I have over 10 years of VK experience. I 'sing along great' in the car, but when it comes to Karaoke, I get totally busted XD

Whenever I do Karaoke with my friends, 90% of the time, I'm just winging it. I'm better at imitating the vocal style than I am at guessing lyrics though lmao

>Ensoku best album >lacks the masterpiece that is "this is a pen"

At least the songs are good.

And here I was hoping for a release...

Get louder speakers

I can't tell whether it's supposed to be an eye... or a butthole (sorry I had to lol)

I never thought hairstyles like this would ever return in Visual Kei. Makes me hope the new single is gonna be good
-
Why the hell did teenage me buy into the dumbass rumor that Mahiro from Kiryu was a middle schooler in Curse and MADARA? What pre-teen lets Yuuga write him a song themed around Nakadashi (I don't think I should have to explain what that is lmao)

From what I'm guessing, he's just performing as much as he can until he can't anymore, and honestly, I don't blame him. I just hope potential blindness doesn't stop him from pursuing his passion any further, as blind musicians were historically very important to the development of music (especially traditional Japanese music)

Does anyone know the story behind these early Inugami Circus Dan's TV performances? They seem to be from way before they released anything
-
-
@saiko I'm pretty sure they've even been on Utaban at some point - the same variety show that's featured artists like Gackt and Morning Musume in the past lol - think it was around 2003 when they kinda seemed to have 'peaked' (around the time the Kami no Inu album came out)
As for these videos - they must be from some of their veeeery early days. In one of them they show a picture at the end that looks like some kinda album/single cover but I don't recognize it. Thought it could mb be their first 'official' ep from '97 but the cover's entirely different

So I tried DEZERT's new album, and I don't really plan to go back to it. I think it's a small step in the right direction, but it still doesn't hold up compared to their first two albums.
For one, I think the metal songs are holding back way too much on what they could be. There are no harsh vocals, for one, and while I get that not every metal song needs harsh vocals, these songs could definitely benefit from some screaming parts.
As well, Chiaki's voice just sounds weird. IDK if he just sounds like that now, or if they increased the throat-length setting on the Autotune in order to make him sound "manlier".
IDK what's holding them back, whether it be Danger Crue, or Chiaki himself. Either way, I like it better than TODAY, but I also think it could be much better.
At least those are my opinions, all I can do is hope the next album is better

I do like how funky some of the songs are though. I think if DEZERT combined older sounding songs with newer sounding songs on one of their albums, they could benefit from satisfying both sides of their fanbase, without having to sacrifice anything.
